I wonder how much of a percentage will go to China?

Just more extremist attention-grabbing crap. This is an exceptional situation during which the government feels obligated to take extraordinary steps. This doesn't represent a switch to communism and to say otherwise is downright intellectually dishonest

Ill just wait and reserve judgement and see how much China somehow ends up buying up or getting their hands on to satisfy flops.

The FACT that Americans by overwhelming majorities choose one of the major parties doesn't make us LESS Democratic, contrary to your false perceptions about REALITY.

When a non REP-DEM Candidate gets 19% (R.perrot)of the American peoples
votes but get 0% representation (E.C.)and a Candidate (DEM) gets 43% of
the Peoples votes gets 70% Representation, one has to wonder are we being
con'd!

Yes there are MANY parties in the US but as you have said: "if you don't vote
for a REP or DEM it's like throwing your vote away, or not Voting" !!!

So effectively we have only 2 parties! but technically we do have more !

Read the paper this mourning. WaMu is at an all time low. But it says that we are not to worry because the Feds are keeping a really close eye on it. I bet.
